Robert stood near the beer line and
watched as a brunette in a tight short skirt and low cut top strutted across
the room and stood before him.
She dropped her gaze to his feet and
moved it up to his hips then linked gazes with him. "Hello, tall, dark and
totally fuckable." She dragged her tongue across her top lip.
Robert's chuckle started with a
shake of his shoulders then moved to the crooked grin on his face before it
erupted from his mouth.
She stepped in closer, slid her hand
down his stomach and rested it on the inside of his thigh.
Robert didn't release his gaze from
hers. "What? Ya want me to just rip your clothes off and do ya here?"
Her pupils dilated.
Robert flicked her hand off his leg
then glanced left and right to see who had slipped their arms around his.
"Tonya." Tricia waited
until the girl looked at her. "This gorgeous hunk of maleness is more man
than you could ever handle."
Jennifer flicked her hand. "Go
away now. He's all ours."
Tonya turned on her heel and stormed
off.
Robert grinned. "Thank you. But
I coulda handled that myself."
"We're just protecting Julie's
property." Tricia winked and wandered over to speak with a friend.
Jennifer released his arm.
"Tonya's the school slut."
"Figured that out all by
myself."
Julie stopped in front of them.
"Did you get lost coming back from getting the beer?" She glanced at
his empty hands. "Or did you get lost going to find the beer?"
Christopher barged between them and
bumped Robert's shoulder. "Guess Jennifer's starting to hang with
trash."
Robert lunged forward, grabbed
Christopher's shoulder, spinning him around. Before Christopher could react,
Robert slammed his palms on Christopher's chest shoving him back a couple of
steps. "I am so not going take any of this shit tonight. Ya wanna take
this outside and end it now?"
Refusing to make eye contact with
Robert, Christopher glanced around. "I didn't mean nothing."
"Yea, you did." Robert locked
his gaze onto Christopher's and didn't blink.
Jennifer started to step forward,
but Julie touched her arm. "No, leave him alone. Let him deal. He won't do
anything stupid."
Several heartbeats later, a friend
of Christopher's grabbed his arm, pulling him away.
Robert slightly turned his head and
watched as they camouflaged Christopher into the crowd. He rolled his shoulders
and twisted his head around then turned. All signs of anger had disappeared. He
stepped closer to Jennifer. "Sorry. He shouldn't have insulted ya. If ya
want me to go, I'm outta here."
She handed him an unopened beer,
rose up on her toes and placed a tiny kiss on his cheek. "You did good.
He's an ass." Smiling at the surprised look on Robert's face, she walked
over to a group of girls to mingle with her friends.
Still holding the beer, Robert
walked nearer to Julie and pulled her close. "Thanks. I heard what you
said. Thanks for trustin' me." He pressed his lips against the velvet skin
of her neck and inhaled the aroma of her perfume. He wanted to trail kisses up
her long neck and lose himself in the touch of her soft pink lips, instead, he
stood before her gazing into her eyes.
Julie's voice went mute at the touch
of his lips. The heat of his flesh on hers made her mind swirl. Through the
noise of the crowd and the fire that raged in both of them, the sound of music
broke through.
"Wanna dance?" He breathed
across her ear.
